Abstract: A jet pump for the suction and/or conveyance of flowable materials or mixtures of materials by means of a liquid or gaseous propellant medium consists of a housing with inlets (28, 64) as well as a common outlet or discharge (30). A flow passage (44) in the housing forms at least one propellant nozzle and at least one diffuser, to which is attached at least one suction chamber (50-56) behind the propellant nozzle (34) for the material to be conveyed. The flow passage (44) has rectangular cross section and is limited by symmetrical side limiting surfaces on separate housing walls (10, 12), between which wall elements (18, 20, 22), consisting of profile members, determine the sectional contours and dimensions for all of the lengthwise segments through the inside of the housing parallel to the plane of symmetry. A simple manufacture with use of a small number of basic parts is thus obtained, which provides for an adaptation to different capacities as well as different propellant mediums and conveyed materials.

Title: Process for producing layers resistant against corrosion, wear and compaction
IPC: C23C14/02
Filed: 1988-12-01
Granted: 1992-07-01
Abstract: A process for producing corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant and compression-resistant layers on a metallic substrate (workpiece) is proposed. According to the process, the substrate is first subjected to diffusion hardening in a first process step. Then, using a PVD process, an intermediate layer is applied to the layer formed by diffusion hardening. Finally, in a third process step using a PVD process, a very hard final layer is applied to the intermediate layer. All three layers in their totality form, on the metallic substrate, a layer which has the intended corrosion-resistance, wear-resistance and compression-resistance.

Abstract: An apparatus and method, for use with a computer, for converting an uncompressed one-dimensional array of binary bits into a compressed binary bit string and/or for processing a Boolean operation on a first and a second compressed bit string. The computer includes a computer platform (10) which coordinates the various activities related to converting and performing operations on bit strings. The first and second bit strings each contain one or more impulses. An impulse contains a run, which is a string of one or more bits of the same binary value, and an ending bit having a polarity opposite the polarity of the run. The impulses are encoded in one or more compressed impulse formats. Each compressed impulse format contains at least a first and a second indicator. The first indicator is for indicating the binary value of one or more same polarity bits of the run and the second indicator is for indicating the length of bits of the impulse. The length of bits is a quantity of the same polarity bits of the run and/or the ending bit having a polarity opposite the run. Computer platform (10) includes an encoder (14), an optional secondary memory (16), an optional buffer memory (18), a Boolean logic Unit (20), canonical processing unit (25) and a system coordinator (31).

Title: Process for the destruction of organic waste material
Inventor: HALLETT DOUGLAS J
IPC: B09C1/08
Filed: 1990-04-03
Granted: 1997-08-20
Abstract: A system for the destruction of organic waste material such as halogenated organic compounds, and related matter. In one embodiment the waste material is reduced with a gaseous reducing agent such as hydrogen above about 600 DEG C, the gaseous products are condensed and cooled in the presence of an aqueous mist at about 5 DEG C, and condensed organic and aqueous material is collected and the aqueous portion recycled into the condensing and cooling steps. In another embodiment, where acid gases (for example, hydrogen halides) are produced during reduction, the gaseous products are condensed in the presence of aqueous mist at about 85 DEG C and a major portion of the aqueous mist condenses as acidic water which is collected and neutralized. Remaining gaseous components are then cooled to about 5 DEG C as in the previous embodiment. In further embodiments, the remaining uncondensed gaseous products are oxidized with a gaseous oxidizing agent at a temperature above about 1000 DEG C. The process thus allows destruction of organic waste, recovery of reduced products, and oxidation of unrecovered products. The system includes a reduction vessel wherein hydrogen is used directly in intimate mixing relation with pulverized waste material, and after completion of a residence time sufficient to reduce the organic compounds, the gaseous by-products pass to an adjacent acid recovery and neutralization vessel and/or reduced product recovery vessel and combustor.

Abstract: The efficiency of a gas-liquid contacting process is greatly improved with stability by using a gas-liquid contacting apparatus which comprises: (A) a vessel for holding a liquid; and (B) a gas sparger unit immersed in the liquid comprising (a) a gas inlet tube; (b) a gas sparger box, the upper surface of which is provided with perforations through which the gas is bubbled, communicating with the gas inlet tube; and (c) a liquid-seal tube connected to the lower portion of the gas sparger box and extending downwardly and opening at the lower end. Two or more of the gas sparger boxes can be provided each communicating with the gas inlet tube through a manifold. Preferably, the gas sparger box or boxes are open upwardly and the open upper end is covered with a perforated rubber plate. This gas-liquid contacting apparatus is particularly useful in processes in which a large volume of a solid material is formed by a gas-liquid contacting reaction as in the production of precipitated calcium carbonate by the carbonation of milk of lime.
